Abstract
Membrane vesicles prepared from the midguts of Philosamia cynthia larvae (Lepidoptera) show a concentrative uptake of phenylalanine in the presence of salt gradients. Unlike mammalian intestines, the highest accumulation of the amino acid occurs with a potassium salt gradient. Glucose is very poorly permeable across the vesicles.Entities:
